Electricity and Electronics for HVAC

File Size: 8.87 Mb

Description

This book is intended to provide an introduction to the basic principles of electricity and electronics as they apply to refrigeration, heating, and airconditioning systems. It combines basic principles, using very little math, with the latest applications found in the HVAC industry.

The fields of refrigeration, air conditioning, and heating are undergoing some very rapid changes. The advent of the computer chip has made it possible to control heating and cooling systems precisely and with a great deal of freedom in programming their applications. The new high-efficiency furnaces utilize the chip both for sequencing and for protection from accidental damage. Most of these programmable controllers provide instructions and technical bulletins. They are numerous, and each has its own approach to solving a given problem. This book will make it possible for you to understand these instructions and improvements.
